2011-Ģ��ƵAT-129

Ģ��ƵAT Held or Ģ��ƵDT Pronouncements

Ģ��ƵAT considered Ms Beaudry��s application for revision of judgment No. 2010-Ģ��ƵAT-129. Ģ��ƵAT held that Ms Beaudry��s arguments were irrelevant if they did not meet the requirements clearly established in the Ģ��ƵAT Statute to ensure the finality of a judgment. Ģ��ƵAT held that the application did not meet the requirements of Article 11 of the Ģ��ƵAT Statute and therefore was manifestly inadmissible. Ģ��ƵAT dismissed the application.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

In judgment No. 2010-Ģ��ƵAT-129, Ģ��ƵAT vacated Ģ��ƵDT judgment No. Ģ��ƵDT/2010/039 and affirmed the Administration��s decision not to renew Ms Beaudry��s appointment of limited duration.

Legal Principle(s)

An application that, in fact, seeks a review of a final Ģ��ƵAT judgment can irrespective of its title, only succeed if it fulfils the strict and exceptional criteria established under Article 11 of the Ģ��ƵAT Statute. Parties cannot rely on Ģ��ƵAT��s inherent power to reconsider to obtain a revision expressly forbidden by its Statute from a rule based on the concept of res judicata.
